Burn Lyrics

Lightning flash on the mountain, high desert storm

You come over here past midnight and tell me something's wrong

I let you in anyway, you sweep past me with a kiss

And I remember that night you told me that we can't go on like this

And when the lightning strikes the hillside again

I Ain't seen this kind of storm since I don't remember when

And there's Spanish wine, we got lots of time to watch it all burn

You say you've been lonely since you're gone, lonely but not alone

And your eyes are telling me that the lovers have come and gone

And there's vacancy in your smile, mysteries when you speak

Your heart's at a distance, you keep it out of reach

You ask to stay the night, you tell me things will be alright

But come the morning you'll be gone

This'll just be a lie in this song

And your eyes are as dark as the wine

And your hair is the color of midnight

Lay back and say you're feeling fine

But the fires won't conceal the lie

And when the lightning strikes the hillside again

I Ain't seen this kind of storm since I don't remember when

And there's Spanish wine, we got lots of time to watch it all burn
